August 27, 1870

FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED NEWSPAPER, New York, August 27, 1870  See the photo below for the terrific doublepage centerfold on yacht racing, or sailing. The two large prints are captioned: "The Great Yacht RSace for ther 'Queen's Cup'--Won by the America in English Waters in 1851--On Mnday, Aug. 8, 1870, Between the Cambria or the Royal Thames Yacht Club, and Vessels of the New York Yacht Club." This centerfold is tipped-in so no binding holes. There is a related article on another page. This issue is complete in 16 pages with many other unrelated prints, and in nice condition.
